right5438140What is being studied this year:There are around 8 topics left to cover in the syllabus and these should be completed during the Spring term, giving plenty of time for revision of the course. Higher topics left include: Advanced trigonometry, histograms, functions, circle theorems, vectors and proportion.Foundation topics left include: Constructions, quadratic equations, volumes, fractions, standard form, similar shapes and solving simultaneous equations.The Maths Department are providing a Walking Talking mock during the week beginning 29th October prior to the first set of mocks to support practising exam techniques. Pupils receive weekly homework to complete to support their classwork and/or their revision towards the mock and final exams. One of the best methods for improving understanding and confidence in Mathematics is to practice exam questions through completing past papers. Pupils will have many opportunities to try past papers and these are likely to be set over holiday periods too. It is important pupils complete these to the best of their ability, using revision guides to help when necessary to develop their skills. Regular practice with the papers will lead to improved results as pupils familiarise themselves with the wording of questions and have a greater awareness of what skills are required to solve the problems. 00What is being studied this year:There are around 8 topics left to cover in the syllabus and these should be completed during the Spring term, giving plenty of time for revision of the course.
